Newspaper abstract
Jasper EVILSIZOR, son of William and Frances Ellison EVILSIZOR, was born 18-
Nov-1862 in Mad River township, Champaign County, OH. He was one of seven 
children-three girls and four boys, Also he was of a family in which there 
were 14 half-brothers and sisters. On September 17, 1891 he was united in 
marriage to Emma Hamilton, also of Mad River. To this union was added nine 
children; five sons and four daughters; one daughter Maude, having died in 
infancy. Mr Evilsizor had been a life long resident of Mad River township and 
a prosperous and well respected farmer. About 30 years ago he attended a 
revival meeting in Tremont City held by Evangelist Carroll. In this meeting he 
received a definite religious experience. Though he never united with any 
church, he held on to his inner and spiritual experiences. He, with his wife, 
frequently attended the Bowlusville United Brethren Church and took an 
interest in its upkeep. For nearly two years the deceased had been in 
declining health, caused by heart trouble. On last Oct 4 he was stricken with 
paralysis, on Oct 6 with a second stroke, and on Oct 8 with a third stroke. 
Since then he had been entirely bedfast. He bore his suffering patiently until 
the last and on early Sunday morning, April 5, 1936, he passed to the world 
beyond at the age of 73 yrs 4 months and 17 days. He leaves to mourn his 
departure; his devoted wife; five sons, Oscar, at home; Robert, living in the 
home of Amanda Haer, Urbana, RR5. Three daughters, Alice, at home, Mary Grow 
of Cable, Ohio, and Thelma Seelenbinder of Urbana, and one half-brother, the 
Rev Isaac EVILSIZOR, of Mechanicsburg; and 13 grandchildren and a number of 
nieces and nephews, besides a wide circle of other relatives and friends. Many 
friends that traveled with me Reached Heaven's Portal long ago; One by one 
they left me battling With the dark and crafty foe. They are watching at the 
portal, They are waiting at the door; Waiting only for my coming-- The beloved 
ones gone before.
